Estimating Manager 1
We are seeking an experienced Estimating Manager to lead the preparation and delivery of accurate, competitive estimates for a range of projects. This role will manage the estimating process from initial enquiry through to submission, ensuring that costs, risks, resources and programme requirements are fully understood and clearly presented. You will work closely with commercial, operational, procurement and project teams to develop robust pricing strategies and support successful bids.
Key responsibilities will include reviewing tender and contract documentation, coordinating the preparation of bills of quantities and cost plans, obtaining and assessing supplier and subcontractor quotations, and identifying opportunities, exclusions and commercial risks. You will maintain estimating standards, templates and databases, monitor market conditions and contribute to continuous improvements in systems and processes. The role will also involve mentoring and reviewing the work of estimators, managing workloads and deadlines, and presenting estimates and recommendations to senior stakeholders. You will be expected to ensure that all submissions are accurate, compliant, commercially sound and delivered within agreed timescales.
Applicants should have substantial experience in estimating, ideally within a construction, engineering, manufacturing or related project environment, together with a strong understanding of costs, contracts, procurement and project delivery. You will need excellent analytical and numerical skills, sound commercial judgement and the ability to interpret technical information and complex documentation. Strong communication and negotiation skills are essential, as is confidence working collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders. Experience using estimating, enterprise resource planning or other relevant software, along with a methodical approach and high attention to detail, is desirable. This is an opportunity for a capable estimating professional to take ownership of a varied workload and make a significant contribution to the quality and success of future projects.
